~ The Day-to-Day Life of a Lolita Fashion Enthusiast

Tag Archives: hit count

30,000 hits! The freebie this time is some cute little box templates! They’d be perfect for storing rings or small trinkets, or using for gifts. I have two different kinds for you, sweet and gothic, and just click the thumb to view the full template:
I love the gothic one. The tiny spiders and crosses are just too cute! So stereotypically goth. These should be pretty straight forward I think, any slot with a letter should be glued into place. The prints used are actually fabrics from Superbuzzy, which is full of awesome stuff.

As a side note, I just really want to say that I love my local lolitas. They’re so supportive and friendly and generally awesome. I had some trouble the past couple of days with rude comments towards me. Normally I have pretty thick skin, but this week I just had no tolerance for stuff like that, and you girls really made me feel better about myself and the things that I do. And thank you to all of my readers too! Especially you guys who comment, you make me feel like my little blog is worthwhile :D

WTF of the Week:
Well I wouldn’t call this “WTF” exaaactly, it’s certainly not my favorite thing ever either. The problem for me is the print is too small and busy, it overwhelms the simple design of the jsk. I’m also not really into the color scheme. I really don’t like that dark salmony color, and the yellows and greens aren’t my favorite either. The design is lovely though, in a plain color or even a different print it would look much better.

As a side note, I got to 30,000 hits the other day. Thank yoooou! I’ll be posting a freebie in the next few days.

So I picked up a few things at Animazement to share! First is my new cell phone strap:
Which is Minnie from Disney Sea at Tokyo Disney. I’m a sucker for anything Disney, as most of you know, and Tokyo Disney gets the coolest stuff. This is from their parade, The Legend of Mythica, which involves boats and fountains and all sorts of crazy things. Mostly though, it’s Minnie dressed up like a princess, which I love.
I also got some stationary:
It’s a pretty large memo pad, and it’s fairy tale themed! Perfect for writing to my dear friend Allison, who will soon become my overseas penpal when she leaves to study abroad in Germany in August! My favorite part is that all the fairy tales are mixed up, it’s not just a sheet per fairy tale:

My other news for the day is that my little blog has hit 25,000 hits! so, as promised, a freebie for all of you! It’s a wallpaper this time, 1280 x 1024, but if you’d like it in a different size, just let me know!
Credit goes to thevisual-beast for the Alice Deco scans, they’re really excellent! I’ll definitely be getting back to the Lolita 101 posts sometime this week, and expect a return to my normal weekly posts as well!

Oh gosh, you guys. You’ve really floored me. I hit 20,000 hits a couple of days ago, and I really am thankful. I started this little blog just hoping to take my ideas down, maybe help a couple of people, and I’ve gotten so much from it! The freebie this time is something a little simple, but useful and cute. Just some lovely sheets of paper to print out to take notes on, send letters to friends, or make lists.

There’s a meet-up this weekend for my local group of lolitas that my lovely friend Derin is organizing, and I’ve been trying to pull together my Emergency Meet-up Kit. It’s so important, it gets to be bolded. Here it is in all it’s glory:
Contents:ScissorsSafety PinsBobby PinsCameraMascaraLipgloss

Other Optional Contents:Needle & ThreadComfy ShoesParasol/Umbrella

These are pretty much my go-to things that I don’t really normally have in my purse (except my camera, Lolita 365 kind of requires that to be with me) but I always bring to meet-ups for those just-in-case situations. I think most of these are pretty self-explanatory. Oh, except maybe the scissors, you know how occasionally (especially if it’s something you finished in a hurry the night before) you’ll get those little threads hanging off your skirt? That’s what those are for. And if you have to defend yourself against a hoard of angry normal people disturbed by lolitas in their general presence. I also almost always carry my Innocent World parasol, it’s waterproof so it’s perfect if we get stuck in a sudden shower, and it always looks cute with my outfit.

Oh and I reached 14,000 hits the other day! How crazy is that!? Crazy, crazy, that’s what. So expect some sort of freebie sometime soon! I’m running out of ideas haha. Expect another meet-up advice post a little later this week, as well as a little project I’ve been working on that’s kind of interesting I think.

I loooove this dress. A lot. It’s the new Alice’s Portrait print from Baby. I’ve seen a lot of comparisons to Angelic Pretty’s Dessert Print, which I like reasonably, but Alice’s Portrait is a much more muted print. Plus, I like the fact that it’s actual portraits, frames around pictures of food is just a little weird. Plus, it would fit me really well! Whoo bigger sizes!
Also, I just realized that I reached 13,000 hits! So exciting. Thanks so much for reading!

Frames! For pretty pictures! Rosie and Hello Kitty do such a good job demonstrating. Pick your poison:Pink, Blue, and Purple. I hope you like them! I just reached 12,000 hits the other day, so expect another freebie soon haha! Thank you so much guys, I’m so glad people enjoy reading my blog!

Last night before the stroke of midnight my darling blog got it’s 9,000th hit! In honor, my freebie is mildly New Years related. For part of my friend Allison and I’s 12 Days of Christmas, I gave her a calendar. Filled with Solid Snake. Photoshopped into frilly dresses. SO! I thought I would share that with you all. May it bring you giggles in 2010!
